AFHOOD, or balaclava as they are also know, create 360° head and neck protection from arc flash dangers when used with a AS1000 series face shield, hard hat & chin cup. Each AFHOOD is made from two layers of rib knit material and has an elastic face opening that maintains its shape and size.
CAUTION: Arc Flash Hoods must be worn in combination with a faceshield in order to comply with the requirements of NFPA 70E and will protect 360° inside the arc flash boundary.
